dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

Random DPD Pick:


Mother/Oh Mein Papa
by: Siouxsie and the Banshees
from: Join Hands

Picked By: diamond
For: DPD: 057 - Songs About Parents

This song is a really underrated song from an excellent album. The genius of it was to mix the a music box version of Paul Burkhard's Oh Mein Papa with the Siouxsie original lyrics called Mother. The result is pretty and at the same time haunting. Lyrically it hits the nail on the head of the duality of the mom's role in her children's life, to be the kind protector one minute and the cruel punisher the next.

The one who keeps you warm
and shelters you from harm
Watch out she'll stunt your mind
She'll open up your mind
'Til you emulate her kind
To make you good and make you kind
Is that Mother?
